LIBRAS sign for mental confusion

[Charles Butler]

Having looked at all of your signs, the hands I am drawing are parallel on the same level, with the right hand in front of the left hand, not one above and one below, that´s why I wrote it from above.  The hands move side to side, coming to the center line, from opposite directions and end back at their original starting points on the sides of the head.  They may linger a moment in the middle of the swing when both hands are in front of the eyes.  One is showing being entranced by all the fingers waving at each other. The side view doesn´t show the side-to-side motion starting apart on opposite sides of the head AND the relative position of the hands to each other.  They are not above and below each other but on the same level.

Hello Charles and Everyone!
I have now added four possible writings of the LIBRAS sign for 
confusão, which are numbers 3, 4, 5, and 6 in the LIBRAS SignPuddle. 
I wonder about the direction of movement. Is it side-to-side or 
forward and back? Which writing in the four signs pasted in this 
message, feels the best to you? Val ;-)
